  1. Use a method to make the string "aldous Huxley was born in 1894." grammatically correct by capitalizing the first letter in the sentence.

The code you provide produces this:

Aldous Huxley Was Born In 1894. He Was Born In The United Kingdom.

not

Aldous Huxley was born in 1894.

  1. Take the string "Where now? Who now? When now?" and call a method that returns a list that looks like: [" Where now?", "Who now?", "When now?"].

The code you provide produces:

['Where now', ' Who now', ' When now', '']

not

[" Where now?", "Who now?", "When now?"]

I 2nd this. Using split seems to not only remove the character being used to split, but retains the character in the print result.
